उत्तर

The direction ratios of the `3hat"i" - 4hat"j" + 8hat"k"` are (3, – 4, 8)

The direction cosines of the vector `3hat"i" - 4hat"j" + 8hat"k"` are 

`3/sqrt(3^2 + (-4)^2 + 8^2),(-4)/sqrt(3^2 + (-4)^2 + 8^2), 8/sqrt(3^2 + (-4)^2 + 8^2)`

`3/sqrt(9 + 16 + 64), (-4)/sqrt(9 + 16 + 64), 8/sqrt(9 + 16 + 64)`

`(3/sqrt(89), (-4)/sqrt(89), 8/sqrt(89))`

Direction ratios = (3, – 4, 8)

Direction cosines = `(3/sqrt(89), (-4)/sqrt(89), 8/sqrt(89))`
